@Beta @GwtCompatible public abstract class ArrayBasedCharEscaper extends CharEscaper
CharEscaper
that uses an array to quickly look up replacement
characters for a given char
value. An additional safe range is
provided that determines whether char
values without specific
replacements are to be considered safe and left unescaped or should be
escaped in a general way.
A good example of usage of this class is for Java source code escaping
where the replacement array contains information about special ASCII
characters such as \\t
and \\n
while escapeUnsafe(char)
is overridden to handle general escaping of the form \\uxxxx
.
The size of the data structure used by ArrayBasedCharEscaper
is
proportional to the highest valued character that requires escaping.
For example a replacement map containing the single character
'\
u1000
' will require approximately 16K of memory. If you
need to create multiple escaper instances that have the same character
replacement mapping consider using ArrayBasedEscaperMap
.

escape(char c)
Escapes a single character using the replacement array and safe range
values.

escape(String s)
Returns the escaped form of a given literal string.

protected abstract char[] |
escapeUnsafe(char c)
Escapes a
char value that has no direct explicit value in the
replacement array and lies outside the stated safe range. |

protected ArrayBasedCharEscaper(Map<Character,String> replacementMap, char safeMin, char safeMax)
safeMax < safeMin
then no characters
are considered safe.
If a character has no mapped replacement then it is checked against the
safe range. If it lies outside that, then escapeUnsafe(char)
is
called, otherwise no escaping is performed.

safeMax < safeMin
then no characters
are considered safe. This initializer is useful when explicit instances of
ArrayBasedEscaperMap are used to allow the sharing of large replacement
mappings.
If a character has no mapped replacement then it is checked against the
safe range. If it lies outside that, then escapeUnsafe(char)
is
called, otherwise no escaping is performed.

override this method to provide generalized escaping for characters.
Note that arrays returned by this method must not be modified once they have been returned. However it is acceptable to return the same array multiple times (even for different input characters).
